The 2016 Presidential election will most likely go down as one of the most controversial, weird and crazy elections in American history. But, what if the presidential candidates were actually characters from our favorite movies? Plot Twist!
Jill Stein: The Invisible Woman
Jill who? Well, she holds the current record for the most votes ever received by a woman candidate for President in the general election. According to her website, she’s also a mother, organizer, physician, environmental-health advocate and Green Party nominee. However, she’s basically the Invisible Woman in the 2016 election.
Sorry Jill, maybe next time.
Bernie Sanders aka Jedi Master
Bernie Sanders hasn’t been around for 900 years like Yoda, but he’s definitely experienced. His career includes having been a mayor, congressman, senator and presidential candidate. He focused his campaign on enlightening the minds of the youth with his ideas about socialism and free education. Similarly, Yoda taught “The Force” to young Jedi and helped them fight back against the Dark Side.
Hillary Clinton or Dolores Umbridge?
You knew this one was coming. The political agendas of Ms. Umbridge and Senator Clinton are very similar. Ms. Umbridge was power hungry and ambitious to become the Headmistress of Hogwarts. She was supposedly on the good side, working with the government to defend the wizarding world. Yet, her real agenda was to become the Headmistress and establish total control. But, wait she’s only doing this for the good and welfare of the children…
Gary Johnson: Willie Nelson
I can totally picture Gary Johnson and Willie Nelson passing a joint back and forth, discussing animal rights and environmental issues. I don’t know if I could picture Gary Johnson or Willie Nelson being the President of the United States. But hey, I’m down for legalizing weed. #votenumber2
Donald Trump: Ironman
Donald Trump: Genius billionaire playboy philanthropist? Donald Trump is basically the politicized version of Tony Stark. Mr. Trump is boundlessly arrogant, claims a net worth of $8.7 billion dollars and mostly has no filter. But, that doesn’t mean we shouldn’t count him out. If Tony Stark could clean up his act and save the world, I’m counting on Trump to do the same.
